Nah, you usually are setting yourself up for at least a year's worth of savings. No one just "decides" on a random Tuesday, as cool as it makes you seem
Although its still very vertically scoped for zed, I'm way more hyped about this UI than iced, dioxus ui, gtk-rs, etc. because of how complete it already is in an early stage.
I'm ready for all the "what about x" comments, because I'm going to check them all. I'm choosing React over anything else right now because of how well my DevEx has been.
I can say the same about Angular, you really need to know how Angular works to know what you're doing. That's the whole issue with these frameworks. At least React doesn't try to abstract too much
What do you mean? The DOM is abstracted away. Hooks are magical, and don't work like regular javascript functions. The scheduler, and the concurrent features are magical. The string pragmas are magical. It is all getting more and more magical, and you need a linter to keep you in line with the magic.
It's actually kind of funny how React devs quite literally don't know how HTML or JavaScript actually works (let alone HTTP or TCP/IP). React is an absolute trash-heap of abstraction that just reinforces its dominance because of popularity, similar to Java in the early-mid 2000s.
It's the definition of sunken cost fallacy: I mean, heck, I genuinely believe React is garbage, and yet I use it for just about every project because of its ecosystem and lazy "npm install <whatever-i-need>" muscle memory.
And the LLMs are better at React than other frameworks. You need less React devs now than other frameworks. And with greenfield project with the compiler, it seems like an easy path. We don't use React, and I would not choose to do so, but LLMs + Compiler make it a great default for shops starting new apps.
The complete opposite. It's OP that's trying to "optimize the web server for reverse proxying and static file serving", when what we have out there is more than enough.
> or you're wasting time
"Wasting time" is not a problem. If OP is doing working on things because it brings them pleasure and they are hoping to learn from it, more power for them. What bugs me about these types of posts is when people are set on the "build a better mouse trap" mentality and want others to validate them.
It may sound "harsh" to you, but if I came up asking for "any type of feedback" when I'm trying to figure out if the idea is worth persuing, I'd be pretty upset if I kept chasing an invisible dragon because the community was more concerned about "hurting my feelings" instead of being upfront and give some warning like this might be interesting to you but it's not solving any real pain point. Keep that in mind when deciding if work on this will be worthwhile.

I have optimized it, so it would be faster than the original server I have been working on.

If you feel the project isn't solving a real pain point for you, you don't have to use it! I was showcasing my web server to interested people on Hacker News.
